Fluid flows induced by a flagellated bacterial swimmer are often modeled as a simple force dipole, valid in the far field. A refined swimmer representation is presented that makes use of regularized singularities, retaining simplicity while capturing details of the complex flow field near the swimmer. A simple model system is then considered, demonstrating that these nuanced hydrodynamics are significant for bacterial interactions.
